In the present study on the basis of cultural, morphological, biochemical and 16s rRNA gene sequencing two rhizospheric bacteria were identified as Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 and Enterobacter cloacae KY231211 and screened for their biosurfactant production potential by oil displacement assay, blood haemolysis assay and emulsification index with vegetable oils (soybean oil and sunflower oil) in different incubation period (0, 24, 48, 72 and 96h). In oil displacement assay, Enterobacter cloacae KY231211 and Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 broth culture revealed positive oil displacement but Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 showed highest displacement values than Enterobacter cloacae KY231211. Both cultures showed haemolysis on blood agar media. Soybean oil showed higher emulsification index with Enterobacter cloacae KY231211 culture while Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 culture showed higher emulsification index with sunflower oil. Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 revealed highest displacement values with Soybean oil. Brevundimonas aurantiaca KY231210 showed highest yield in biosurfactant production as compare to Enterobacter cloacae KY231211.
